# IRC Parser Tests

Various tests for IRC parsers so people can check to ensure they're consistent. These tests are based on existing test suites and widespread client behaviour.

**Note:** This is still being written. Feel free to suggest or contribute tests - PRs are welcomed!

## Testing

There are two included tests used to test these vectors, the Python and Golang programs.

### Using the python library
Either `pip install irc_parser_tests` or add `irc_parser_tests` to your `requirements.txt`. The test data is available in the module `parser_tests`.

### Releasing a new python version
1. Bump the version identifier in `parser_tests/__init__.py`
2. Commit the version bump and tag it `git tag v`
3. Push to master
4. Github actions will deploy to PyPi

### Python

The `test.py` script uses the [girc](https://github.com/DanielOaks/girc) and [ircmatch](https://github.com/mammon-ircd/ircmatch>) libraries as reference implementations, as well as [pyyaml](http://pyyaml.org/) to parse the test files.

To install these libraries, run:

pip3 install --upgrade girc ircmatch pyyaml

After that, simply run the script with `python3 test.py` in the root dir. This will test everything we can test, and show the output.

### Go

The `test.go` script uses the [girc-go](https://github.com/DanielOaks/girc-go) packages as reference implementations.

To install these packages, run:

go get -u ./...

After that, simply run the script with `go run test.go run` in the root dir. This will test everything we can test, and show the output.
